Here<\/a> is the video clip of Obama lying to Romney and the rest of us in their second debate.  Obama lies when he claims that on the Arizona law (S. B. 1070) law enforcement  officers can stop people whom they merely suspect of being undocumented workers. Obama has told this lie before.  <\/span><\/p>\n

The details are in an earlier post<\/a> which I now reproduce:<\/span><\/p>\n

Debra Saunders' article<\/a> begins:<\/span><\/p>\n

President Barack Obama hailed the Supreme Court's 5-3 decision Monday that struck down most of Arizona's 2010 immigration law. In a statement released by the White House, however, the president said that he remains "concerned about the practical impact of the remaining provision of the Arizona law that requires local law enforcement officials to check the immigration status of anyone they even suspect to be here illegally."<\/span><\/p>\n

All eight voting members of the Supreme Court upheld this provision, which requires <\/span>
that Arizona cops try to determine the immigration status of individuals who have been stopped for reasons not involving immigration.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Please note the difference between what the president is quoted as saying and what Saunders correctly reports the S.B. 1070 provision as requiring.  The law requires "that Arizona cops try to <\/span>determine the immigration status of individuals who have been stopped for reasons not involving immigration." <\/strong>President Obama of course knows this.  So Obama lied<\/em> in his statement when he said that "the Arizona law that requires local law enforcement officials to check the immigration <\/span>status of anyone they even suspect to be here illegally<\/strong>."<\/span><\/p>\n

Obama's egregious misrepresentation has been repeated time and again by leftists over the last two years.  See my 1 June 2010 post, The Misrepresentations of Arizona S. B. 1070 Continue<\/a>.  Other <\/span>
of my 1070 posts are to be found in the Arizona category<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why are leftists so mendacious?  Because in their scheme the glorious end justifies the scurrilous means.<\/span><\/p>\n
